Cornbread Instructions
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
2. If you are using cast iron, place the 1/4 cup oil in the bottom of a 9″ skillet and place over high heat on your stovetop while you make the batter.
3. Pour the cornmeal into a bowl and add the oil, egg, and buttermilk.
4. Mix until combined and drop a small amount into your skillet.
5. If it sizzles immediately, go ahead and pour in your batter to within 1 inch of the top. If you want a thinner cornbread, just don’t pour in as much.
6. Transfer the skillet from the stove top to the hot oven.
7. Bake 25-30 minutes or until golden and set.

Note
If you are not using cast iron, grease your pan with nonstick cooking spray and do not preheat the pan. Bake as directed.
